Water down, then up again.

This has been the toughest Steelhead season I have had the displeasure of fishing in. With several cancellations during the high water event, and then great fishing for a week, and then up with the water again. The last two groups left early today because of water height. Looks like the rain is coming back tomorrow, so we may get one good day on the water before it goes up again. Several trees have clogged the river several times in the last couple weeks, and now with three more big trees across the river the chainsaw will be more important than the fishing rods. I cut a path through yesterday, but now the water is going to drop again and the cutting will have to be done every day until we can clear the way. We have been able to get on the water between storms, and the fishing has been good. Here are some pics from the last couple weeks.
